For those that have not had an opportunity to watch this previously, you can now get it on DVD.

In this brilliant BBC drama about a well loved British actor, Michael Sheen plays Kenneth Williams.  Famous for his roles in the Carry On movies, Kenneth Williams played the fool in public, but in private was a deeply unhappy man.  The story is derived greatly from Kenneth Williams’ own diaries, and Michael Sheen gives a brilliant and complex performance of a brilliant complex man.

There are already screen caps available in our Gallery.

The DVD is available now on pre-order from our partners Amazon. Please click the thumbnail below.

To celebrate the 155th birthday of Oscar Wilde, we are offering a MP3 download of ‘The Importance Of Being Earnest’ featuring Michael Sheen as John Worthing, Martin Clunes as Algernon Moncrieff and Dame Judy Dench as Lady Bracknell.

There has been rumours for a while that Michael may not be appearing in Submarine since he said on Twitter a few months ago when asked if it was true he would be working with Paddy Considine, he replied below.

There has still been no official word that he is no longer involved with the project, but a video interview on Digital Spy with Paddy sort of confirms this. While talking about Submarine, he claims Michael Sheen “bailed out”.
